What does sliming mean/feel like and other FAQ's

Well my topic is self-explanatory. I keep hearing about "sliming" and I would like to know what you guys mean by that and what exactly it feels like. I know what being "stuck" means but I never heard of sliming until I came to this forum. I'm a noob.

Also, I've been trying to find an FAQ section for the terminology used but I haven't found it yet. I've come across some other terms too that i'm just not familiar with yet- like NSV. So if someone could like me to another post where these terms have been addressed or something that would be wonderful!

Thanks in advance!

So I posted a HELP message last night.......It took about 30 minutes of non-stop dry heaving for me to feel better. I was in tremendous pain. So now I need some help trying to figure out what might have caused it so it doesn't happen again!!!!

I was banded on 3/15. So i'm in week 2 and I've been eating nothing but chicken broth. Last night I decided to try some egg drop Soup. I thought I was doing well with it, but I'm afraid that might be what caused it. Does anyone think that if I swallowed a piece of egg it would have caused that? I tried chewing them up, but I guess it's possible I didn't.

Should I not eat egg drop soup at this stage of recovery?

Any help or suggestions would be MORE than appreciated!! Last night really scared me!! Thank you!!

Not banded yet, but I have seen people talking about how eggs get stuck. I don't understand it but apparently they can be a trouble food.

I have heard some people complain about eggs. I was banded on 3/7 and I haven't had any problems with them but everyone is different. Id say off the eggs for now. Try em again later you've healed longer. At least til you get to the mushies phase.

Are there are other terms in bandland that a noob may not understand? Like pb? Or anything?
